Levothyroxine in the Ageing Patient: Re-evaluating Cardiovascular Outcomes in Subclinical Hypothyroidism through the ACEL-UK-ETT Trial

This review analyzes the ACEL-UK-ETT emulated target trial, demonstrating that long-term levothyroxine therapy in older adults with subclinical hypothyroidism significantly reduces cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality without compromising bone health, provided age-specific TSH thresholds are utilized.

Impact of Polygenic Risk Scores on the Clinical Presentation and Glycaemic Variability of GCK-MODY

This article explores how polygenic background modifies GCK-MODY clinical phenotypes, influencing HbA1c levels and diagnostic thresholds. Findings highlight the distinct polygenic patterns in GCK-MODY compared to HNF1A-MODY, emphasizing the interaction between monogenic and polygenic factors in diabetes.
